IT IS THE DAILY Savings That Really Count Thrift and saving are being urged on every hand, because they are necessary to shorten the duration of the war. BUT THEY MUST BE PRACTICED SYSTEM ATICALLY AND DAILY. Buying your necessities of us is a sure means of constant economy and accumulation. If our prices on aC.O. D. basis mean anything to you phone us your orders and our boy will be coming with the correct change. We stress C. O. D. because we can best serve you this way. The difference is that we are everlastingly trying to see just how cheap we can sell it to you whereas if we were on a charge basis we would of necessity have to see just how much we could get out of you. If you haven’t tried one of our Puritan Hams you have missed a treat. They are juicy and fine. Shop early this week and avoid the Sat urday evening rush. J. R.
